Jackson problem 5.4: Magnetic induction in a current-free region

In summary, Jackson problem 5.4 is a problem in the book "Classical Electrodynamics" that deals with magnetic induction in a current-free region. Magnetic induction is the process of generating an electric current through a changing magnetic field. A current-free region is a space without any net flow of electric charge. Studying magnetic induction in a current-free region helps us understand the principles of electromagnetism and has practical applications. Some real-world examples include transformers and electromagnetic interference.

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


I think that is taylor series expansion, How that can be expanded right that? even b0, b1 ... is not a differential term.

The solution just use b(z) = Bz(0,z)

Hint: Try taking the divergence and see what you can do with the ##b_{n}## terms algebraically.
